Okay, so we all know this kid has a few of those 'SKD' moments which make us infuriated as Daniel Anderson watching his Eels from the coaches box, but let's not remember that he's still 22 and is playing centre in his first year in red white and blue.
For every SKD moment he has broke the line time after time, got us out of our own half when the bookends were MIA, scored a try where he had no right to, and his defence has been pretty good considering he was a total liability in that aspect in previous seasons. There's not much more we could ask of a centre that is playing his first full year in FG!
He's already racked up about 55 tries for the club in 3 and a half seasons (2007 he only played about 10 games) and stastically been the 2nd best centre after Folau. According to D. Telegraph NRL stats, so far he has 18 tries(tied-3rd), 23 line breaks(2nd to Uate) and 126 tackle busts (3rd).
Stats obviously aren't the best illustration but this kid has freakish talent and in time he can cut out the brain snaps that have plagued him since he started FG, although this year i can say he has improved his ball handling in general it's just those passes that are not there which he gets crucified for. But once he matures, imo he will be a massive player for us and is on track to break the club scoring record.
